Trial-By-Trial Variation In Upper Extremity Movement Smoothness After Acute Stroke Relates To Clinical Assessments And Corticospinal Tract Injury Open
Background Variability in movement is critical for performance under dynamic conditions. Stroke causes focal injury to the motor system, disrupts voluntary motor control, and leads to less smooth and more variable upper extremity movements…

97 Distinct Clinical and Neuroanatomic Factors Associated with Function-based versus Patient-Reported Outcome Measures After Stroke Open
Objective: Patient-reported outcome measures provide valuable insights into health status after neurologic disease, but their relationships with function-based outcome measures remain incompletely understood. Here we evaluate the relations…

Distinguishing Distinct Neural Systems for Proximal vs Distal Upper Extremity Motor Control After Acute Stroke Open
These results highlight that proximal and distal upper extremity motor systems can be selectively injured by acute stroke, with dissociable deficits and functional consequences. Our findings emphasize how disruption of distinct motor syste…

Association of Brain Age, Lesion Volume, and Functional Outcome in Patients With Stroke Open
We provide evidence that younger brain age is associated with superior poststroke outcomes and modifies the impact of focal damage. The inclusion of imaging-based assessments of brain age and brain resilience may improve the prediction of …

SMS-text messaging for collecting outcome measures after acute stroke Open
Introduction Traditional methods for obtaining outcomes for patients after acute stroke are resource-intensive. This study aimed to examine the feasibility, reliability, cost, and acceptability of collecting outcomes after acute stroke wit…

Novel Platform for Quantitative Assessment of Functional Object Interactions After Stroke Open
Many persons with stroke exhibit upper extremity motor impairments. These impairments often lead to dysfunction and affect performance in activities of daily living, where successful manipulation of objects is essential. Hence, understandi…

Chronic Stroke Sensorimotor Impairment Is Related to Smaller Hippocampal Volumes: An ENIGMA Analysis Open
Background Persistent sensorimotor impairments after stroke can negatively impact quality of life. The hippocampus is vulnerable to poststroke secondary degeneration and is involved in sensorimotor behavior but has not been widely studied …

Global brain health modulates the impact of lesion damage on post-stroke sensorimotor outcomes Open
Sensorimotor performance after stroke is strongly related to focal injury measures such as corticospinal tract lesion load. However, the role of global brain health is less clear. Here, we examined the impact of brain age, a measure of neu…

Association of Modified Rankin Scale With Recovery Phenotypes in Patients With Upper Extremity Weakness After Stroke Open
The mRS broadly relates to domain-specific outcomes after stroke, confirming its established value in stroke trials, but it does not precisely distinguish differences in impairment and function, nor does it sufficiently capture meaningful …

View article: Smaller spared subcortical nuclei are associated with worse post-stroke sensorimotor outcomes in 28 cohorts worldwide
Smaller spared subcortical nuclei are associated with worse post-stroke sensorimotor outcomes in 28 cohorts worldwide Open
Up to two-thirds of stroke survivors experience persistent sensorimotor impairments. Recovery relies on the integrity of spared brain areas to compensate for damaged tissue. Deep grey matter structures play a critical role in the control a…
View article: Cognitive Demands Influence Upper Extremity Motor Performance During Recovery From Acute Stroke
Cognitive Demands Influence Upper Extremity Motor Performance During Recovery From Acute Stroke Open
Together, these results suggest that cognitive demands influence upper extremity motor performance during recovery from acute stroke. Our findings emphasize the integrated nature of motor and cognitive systems and suggest that it is critic…
